Re: The threepeat
I would never even think about doing something like any community outreach just for chairmans or have that be the reason for me being at an event. When we travel to an elementry school and get to sit down with the kids who are staring at you in wonder and awe (i know it's cliche but eh) It puts everything in perspective, one of the greatest joys of being on 341 is goings to demonstrations and explaining the "brain" of the robot and how it works and watching the kids laugh with joy as they drive miss daisy. It is so awesome to see the little ones learning and being so interested with robotics, and I know because I joined the team because of a demonstration they put on and I was there as a youngster in middle school. We never do something to win an award and even if we dont win any awards it doesn't detur us and make us stop we keep on doing what we do because it is FUN and it is cool to see the kids so excited with something that is not as mainstream as sports or video games. I love demonstrations, for the reward you feel inside, no trophy can ever replace that feeling, ok I know this all seems cheesy but anyone that knows what I am talking about would agree
